[QUOTE="Goettler, post: 7829775, member: 92331"] Hey gang, My passion for this hobby stared about 15 years ago when my uncle had a saltwater aquarium, then my father set one up when I was about 15 at time. Once I moved out on my own I setup my first 56 gallon reef. That quickly was upgraded to a full Custom 90 gallon reef about a year later. That system ran successfully for about 5 years. Unfortunately I had a major system crash, my return pump failed when I left for a weekend at the lake, not having enough salt available at the time for a series of water changes (rookie mistake) failed the system, failed me. Ultimately resulted in the sale of my system. I sold everything. With no plans on looking back. Well... 4 years later here we are.. It all re-stared with a trip to the city where one of my favourite coral stores is located Bayside Corals. I made the “very bad” decision of going in for a “quick” look that turned into about 3hrs.. that resulted me coming home with mixed thoughts in my head and the itch started.. After some thought I talked my self out of it..My wife had other plans.. she went and ordered me the tank I was eyeing up anyways.. Who can say that? lol did that just happen!!? So here we are.. a build thread... I went with the Innovative Marine 25 Lagoon EXT, I wanted a system I could setup and run effectively at a lower cost.. so i thought... TANK: Innovative Marine 25 Lagoon EXT STAND: Custom Plywood SUMP: Fiji Cube Fiji-20 LIGHTING: Ecotech Radion G5 Xr-15 Pro FlOW: AI Nero 5 CONTROLLER: Neptune Apex Ill Update here shortly with some photos.
